  1. Good bye, my friend. You certainly put up the good fight, didn’t you, Fergie? In your own quiet, unassuming way, as always, never complaining, always grateful for any visits or kind gestures coming your way….”Our Gang” will never be the same without you – some were with you since age five – me – only since junior high….But we were a fun group, weren’t we? …Loved all those great parties that your family had for us….Loved all the football games, Sweater Benefits, dances, just loved being part of a great group of gals. And when we said that we would be friends forever, we meant it. Even though we didn’t see each other every week, we could gather at a moments’ notice for a happy or sad occasion – most usually lunch, dinner or a sleep over. Sixty six years out of high school – and still friends….Oh, yes. I will miss you. Rest in Peace, my friend……..Barbie

  2. Dear Bill and family:

    I was so sad to read that Paula has passed away. I really enjoyed being your neighbor on Walnut Street when I lived at home with my parents and family. You and Paula were aways very friendly to me, when I would come over to visit you and your family. Seems like yesterday that you were starting a family having a beautiful daughter, then a son.

    Paula was a beautiful person inside and out. I’m sure she will be missed by many of your friends and family.

    I will pray for you and your family to get through this difficult time.

    God Bless,
